Large-scale reproductive loss in sheep due to Border disease virus infection, New South Wales, Australia. [PDF]

Aust Vet J
Border disease viruses (BDV) and bovine viral diarrhoea viruses (BVDV) are members of the Pestivirus genus in the family Flaviviridae. While BVDV is one of the most significant endemic viral infections of cattle in Australia, BDV infection is generally considered to be uncommon in Australian sheep.

Effect of High-Pressure Processing Operating Parameters on Microbial Inactivation and Bioactive Protein Preservation in Bovine Milk: A Systematic Review. [PDF]

Compr Rev Food Sci Food Saf
ABSTRACT In the U.S., bovine milk is processed using thermal pasteurization to ensure microbial safety. However, this process alters the structure of heat‐sensitive bioactive proteins associated with the functional benefits of raw milk, including antimicrobial, immunomodulatory, and antioxidant proteins.

A Monoclonal Antibody ELISA-Based Assay for Measuring the Potency of Candidate H5 Clade 2.3.4.4b Pandemic Influenza Vaccines. [PDF]

Influenza Other Respir Viruses
ABSTRACT Background The single radial immunodiffusion (SRID) assay is used to determine the potency of inactivated influenza vaccines. Nevertheless, development of alternative influenza vaccine potency assays with greater sensitivity and less reliance on large quantities of reference reagents is needed.

Diagnostic accuracy of a Brix refractometer to estimate porcine colostrum quality. [PDF]

Vet Rec
Abstract Background The objective of this study was to investigate the validity of the Brix refractometer to accurately estimate immunoglobulin G (IgG) concentrations in porcine colostrum, using radial immunodiffusion (RID) as a reference standard. Methods Eighty‐seven composite colostrum samples were collected from sows on a single pig farm between ...

Specific Immune Response of Mares and their Newborn Foals to Actinobacillus spp. Present in the Oral Cavity

Acta Veterinaria Scandinavica, 2001
Oral swab samples, serum and colostrum was taken from 15 mares and 14 of their foals, within 24 h of birth. The presence of antibody against Actinobacillus spp. isolated from the oral cavity was investigated using agar gel immunodiffusion.

Inter- and interspecific serological relationships in Pellia epiphylla complex

Acta Societatis Botanicorum Poloniae, 2014
Antigenic proteins were used as markers for the study of relationships between three liverwort species from P. epiphylla complex. It has recently been shown that the electrophoretic phenotypes of this species suggested an amphiploid origin of P. borealis.

Silver-enhanced radial immunodiffusion assay of plasma apolipoproteins.

Journal of Lipid Research, 1992
Silver-staining of immunoprecipitates extends the sensitivity of the radial immunodiffusion assay by tenfold. This modification permits the quantification of apolipoproteins A-I, A-II, C, and E at levels of 0.2-1.0 mg/dl in plasma samples at a ...
